In December 2020 I was taken to the hospital with liver failure and respitory failure. I had my transplant on Christmas Eve and came out of my induced coma a day after Christmas. They lost me twice during the surgery. After the surgery I had a lot of difficulties. I had very little strength. I had tubes in my throat and other places, I had to learn to walk again. I didn't actually get out of John Hopkins Hospital until the end of February. That was 3 long,hard months during Covid protocol with no guests or family, I was depressed and hurting. When I finally got home in begining of March I had to rehabilitate at home and get my strength back. Not long after getting home this game was released. With not being able to work and get out of the house a lot this game was a blessing, Ive wanted to play the show for a long time but I'm an Xbox player so this was our first year playing it. I grew up playing baseball at a somewhat high level. I made all state as a kid and played college ball. I never was good enough to make the pros and I realized that in college, I might've been able to play minor league like a few of my friends but I focused on life outside of baseball. Back to this game though. It really helped me ease my mind from all the stress I had been going through. It also helped me get my hand eye coordination and memory a bit sharper than it was, I know a lot of people are frustrated with this game but honestly I can't complain. This game has been a blessing for me. On a brighter note, I've come a long way, I'm back to walking like normal and feeling mostly healthy. So Im thankful to have a game I actually enjoy and can relax and play. Finding things you enjoy in life are important. Not everything in life is rainbows and butterflies.

I just want to say Happy holidays to everyone and I hope 2022 will bless you with a good flow to your life. Wishing you and your families good health and happiness.

I’m happy about the community we have here. I know this has nothing to do with gameplay but I just wanted to take a second to give you all the credit you deserve. All of you are pretty cool. Ok that’s all I got. Have a great day.

Everytime I try to do today's daily moment it's says I must have 8 Relief pitcher. Please adjust lineup. Is anyone else having this problem?

I personally think Byron Buxton was the best POTM this year. Schwarber and Simien we’re good too but they’ve been replaced in my lineup. Jackie is way better than Simien. Schwarber was a great hitter but all star J.T. Realmuto is so good. He throws out everyone and has incredible speed for a catcher. Not to mention I have 39 home runs with JT already.

What’s your thoughts? Is Byron still in your lineup? What about the other POTM cards?

I met Brooks Robinson numerous times when I bartended in Baltimore, I was kinda star struck when I met him TBH. I asked him quietly if he was Brooks Robinson because I didn't want people to crowd him while he was enjoying his lunch. This man was the nicest,most humble person Ive ever met in my life, He would talk about the new players and say how good they were. Saying he could never play in today's game and never Pat himself on the back. Meanwhile he's one of the greatest Third baseman to ever Grace the field. I have so much respect for this man. What a guy,

This new card art style is the best Ive ever seen, The design and color scheme is perfect.

Dee Gorgon hitting a lead off home run in Fernandez tribute to his passing. It was his first home run of the year and he said after it was a sign of Fernandez watching over him.

Also I know this has nothing to do with Diamond Dynasty but we’re all baseball fans here,right? Also Dee Gordon is awesome in the game too.

I just want to wish everyone a Happy New Year! I hope 2022 brings you good health,happiness and and prosperity.

@BIGPAPIx34x said in New Community Manager: Read on here that Cbrev is going to be the new Community Manager for The Show. Does that mean we'll have an incoming 'Nice try Cbrev' sounds of the show? I like CBrev. He’s one of the better streamers and had some nice things to say to me after my liver transplant. He’s a stand up guy. Plus he plays the game at a high level and knows what we want and need in this game.

I’m not interested in this Votto card one bit so I guess I’ll be selling those Topps Now cards and the 42 series card too. I’m always looking forward to a POTM card but when you have 25 speed and average defense it’s basically a home run or nothing. You might get lucky and have a ball ricochet of the wall and get a double or triple but this card isn’t even worth it in my opinion. I’m sure somebody will absolutely love this card but I don’t see how anyone could take him over the other beastly first baseman cards.

Is this card a huge L or am I bugging?

@ikasnu_psn said in The Orioles suck right now,:

I tried to run an all non-circumcised team.

Let me guess? They didn't make the cut?

How do you get this new 99 Harper?

You have to win 200 RS games between now and December 25.

And you have to go flawless.

@sportpimpin_xbl said in I just want...: Merry Christmas to you and your family gotta love this tune of year when we get a break to enjoy our loved ones and the fruits of our labor hard work pays off in America and ya gotta love that I agree. This year is a little more special than most, Christmas Eve one year ago I had my liver transplant. Also I survived respiratory failure and induced coma. They lost me twice but it wasn’t my time. I feel truly blessed. Time to really spread the love this year.

Fernando is dominant. I just find him so boring to pitch with.

Yeah...but I laugh very hard watching hitters struggle and you know they are breaking stuff

Why are you so bad at this game?

#1 years ago I was one of the better players. I havent played in years and unlike you children I dont spend my life on the game. Plus, i dont use cheats like monitors, game stick cheats, etc. Oh and I have a life. Good day fair child.

Let me ask you something, are you sure you’re an adult? What kind of adult makes mom jokes,insults “children” and trolls on the internet. Get it together man. That’s all I have to say about that. I’m not going to respond to anything you say forward but I will leave you with a quote. “A wise says never argue with fools because people from a distance don’t know who’s who.”

It’s been a while. I hope everyone is doing great. How are you liking the new game? I think it’s been great so far. Honestly one of the best I’ve ever played. Love all the content. I’ve missed you all.

Huge W. Maybe the best middle infielder in the game

I have to say they really nailed it on content this time around. There’s a lot of god squad type cards. Elly is incredible. All of the negro league cards are incredible. 99 Semien and Ronald Acura look insane. My only complaint is Shohei isn’t what I expected. I don’t like that they gave him really low vision and low control on his pitches but I guess we can’t have it all. Oh and of course a 99 Adley! Best catcher in the game now. Overall a big W

Side note I pulled 99 king Tuck…Let’s go

@duiaintez_psn said in Just Wow.:

Okay, by my count: There's 8 stat missions @ 5 points each, so 40 points. 15 moments @ 2 points, and 2 more @ 4 points, so 38 points total. 20 points for the conquest, and 20 for the showdown. By my count that's a total of 118 points available offline.

What exactly is the issue here? You can't get it without having to actually mindlessly play against a dumbed down CPU? I guess then you should just settle for the 99 overall pitcher, although not sure how necessary that is if all you do is play against a dumbed down CPU.

Is thst necessary to be like that? Not everyone wants to play online. Not everyone is good online. Some people struggle at one thing while u might struggle against something else. No need to be a d$$k about it. You could've just read it and kept it moving. We all get older but we don't all grow up.

Thank you fixing my duplicate team affinity player issue. I finally get to use Ronald Acuna.
